Default Shock/strut ??

I'll be doing the suspension on my 93GT soon. What I have already are Steeda rear lcas, Southside rear ucas, sub-frame connectors, 4cyl front springs and Eibach pro kit rears. Trying to decide on shock/strut combo. My car is a weekend cruiser that may see the strip 1 to 2 times a year, no road racing or corner carving. Naturally I like to get on it from time to time. My first thought was to get a set of adjustables, like Strange. Then I thought maybe a set of Competition Engineering drag adjustables, I think they are 90/10, 70/30, 60/40. Thinking maybe the C.E. set-up would be better at the strip and still safe for the road. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

I've got the strange 10 way adjustables on the rear and they are great. I chose them over the C.E's because they have more adjustability. Someone correct me if i'm wrong but, I believe to adjust the c.e. shocks/struts you have to remove them from the car. With the strange shocks just turn a **** and you're done.
